Geoportal "Bank of spatial data" has been supplemented with a map of the Republic of Cameroon, formed according to OpenStreetMap data. To work with the map, you can use the GIS Panorama Mini program or other software products of KB "Panorama".

The map was led to the modernised classifier of large-scale plans of scale 1: 5 000 (map5000m). Publishing of updates in bank of spatial data is made by using the program of Databank of digital maps and remote sensing data. Publishing contents of bank of spatial data on the geoportal and data access for downloading are implemented by means of GIS WebServer SE.

Free maps on the basis of OpenStreetMap data are available for download on the page "Digital maps".

In KB "Panorama" the GIS "Operator" version 15.1.3 has been developed. In the new version the tools of creation and updating of digital topographical and special maps, terrain analysis and three-dimensional modelling have been updated.

The "Map Editor" task has been improved. The "Auto-wrap signature lines" mode has been added into the "Editing a label" mode group, designed to perform interactive formatting of multi-line signatures texts on a map when preparing maps for publication or for drawing up reports. When changing the size of the signature metric by moving its second point, the signature text is automatically split into lines, which ensures that the overall text width corresponds to the specified size.

In the "Create a copy of object" and "Moving object" modes, the binding of objects has been improved when moving with the binding of the selected object node to the target node of an arbitrary map object ("K" mode) or to a regular grid node ("N" mode). The new implementation of the "N" mode allows you to snap objects to grid nodes that were previously unbound to grid nodes. To visually control the binding of an object to grid nodes, in the main menu you must select: View - Grid view.

Task "Lists of objects" has been improved. In dialog the elements of editing lists of objects and the button for execution of operations over lists are placed on one panel that simplifies the selection and execution of requests. Modes have been added: Enable display of custom styles, Cutting objects by lists and Search of intersections. Ability has been added to edit the list name in the object list tree. Information about the composition of the list has been expanded: it is presented in the form of a map tree with a description of the total and used number of objects, layers, localizations, semantics, measurements and formulas. To organize collective work, the ability to save, delete and update lists of objects on the GIS Server has been added if the main map is opened from the GIS Server.

"Map Legend" task has been improved. On the General data list tab, functionality for working with lists of objects has been expanded. Modes have been added: Cutting objects by lists and Search of intersections.

Import from format DXF has been improved. There is added a support for different code pages specified in the DXF file in the DWGCODEPAGE field for correct processing of labels on the map.

In the "Navigator 3D" task, the "Flying" and "Move by object" modes have been updated. Ability has been added to change the speed of movement by model during movement using the keyboard keys: "-" deceleration, "+" acceleration. After changing, the speed is saved for subsequent movement on the model in manual mode using the keyboard, during the next use of the specified modes and for the next sessions of working with the task. Previously, the speed of movement on the terrain model was changed only in the "Options" dialog, "Motion" tab, which was less convenient.

The new version of the program is available for download on the Download page.

Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared and updated on the geoportal "Bank of spatial data" the maps of five regions of the Russian Federation (Moscow, Vladimir, Nizhny Novgorod regions, the Republic of Tatarstan and the Chuvash Republic), through which the M-12 "Vostok" highway passes.

The M-12 "Vostok" expressway is a toll highway between Moscow and Kazan, with a length of more than 800 kilometers. It is part of the international transport corridor "Europe - Western China". The route has been open to vehicles since December 2023 and passes through the territory of two federal districts - Central and Volga. The M-12 goes around Noginsk, Orekhovo-Zuevo, Pokrov, Vladimir, Gus-Khrustalny, Murom and Arzamas, and runs parallel to the free M-7 "Volga" highway, passing near Nizhny Novgorod and Cheboksary. With the launch of the new highway, the road from Moscow to the capital of Tatarstan takes almost 2 times less time - only 6.5 hours instead of 12.

The updated maps of regions are formed on the basis of OpenStreetMap data. To work with the maps, you can use the GIS Panorama Mini program or other software products of KB "Panorama". The maps were led to the modernised classifier of large-scale plans of scale 1: 5 000 (map5000m). Publishing of updates in bank of spatial data is made by using the program of Databank of digital maps and remote sensing data. Publishing contents of bank of spatial data on the geoportal and data access for downloading are implemented by means of GIS WebServer SE.

Specialists of KB "Panorama" have improved topographical fonts designed to prepare for the publication of topographic and geographical maps of various scales. In the new version, changes have been made to the font D231.ttf (Ancient upright italic) - the display of the number "7" has been improved, the symbol "- (dash)" is set relative to a lowercase letter. There are added new fonts Ph342.ttf - Chopped slanted thick and H331.ttf - New slanted. All fonts are updated to version 3.1. When making changes, the general rules for constructing fonts were observed: maintaining the accepted width of letters, maintaining the height of characters, the rule of gaps between letters, maintaining the pattern of curves, the order of drawing letters, and others.

New fonts Ph342 and H331 have been added into the classifier of digital topographic maps 1m05gm.rscz and assigned to 18 objects with the Titles type, which are used in the geographical names of rural-type settlements. Font H331 has been added into the classifier of digital survey maps 1mogk13g.rsc and assigned to the object of Geographic labels.

The installation kit "Topographic fonts" is intended for installing a set of fonts into the MS Windows operating system (XP and higher). This set is used in the GIS "Panorama" and other software products of KB "Panorama" for display of alphabetic and numerical designations when designing and publishing cartographic materials. Topographical fonts also are included into structure of software products for Linux. Digital classifiers 1mogk13g.rsc and 1m05gm.rscz are included into the GIS "Panorama" and are used to prepare topographic and geographic maps at a scale of 1:1 000 000.

A new version of the installation kit with topographic fonts is available for download in the Download section. Updated classifiers are available in the Classifiers section.
